I'm hitting issues when setting the home folder.
The default home is /home/ambrevar. If I change `home-directory' to
"/foo" and run `guix system reconfigure' then "/foo" is created but the
home folder is still "/home/ambrevar".
Furthermore, I cannot mount a filesystem as /home:
```
(file-system
(device "home")
(title 'label)
(mount-point "/home")
(type "ext4"))
```
Running `guix system reconfigure' hangs after the `usermod...' changes.
Not sure about how to print more debug details.
Did I hit a bug?

Oops, that’s a bug that should be fixed now:

Does /var/log/messages or /var/log/shepherd.log have more info?
TIA,

/var/log/shepherd.log does not log anything from the `guix system
reconfigure...`.
Reconfiguring with --verbosity=10 fails with the following:
| lock released on `/gnu/store/qz82gly176p51n82j60rx9aadqxyrm0k-grub.cfg.lock'
| building of `/gnu/store/xhg2rknd3yvhhb5vsalwwz14kf6184v1-grub.cfg.drv': goal destroyed
guix system: error: build failed: | | | bind mounting `/dev/full' to `/gnu/store/xhg2rknd3yvhhb5vsalwwz14kf6184v1-grub.cfg.drv.chroot/dev/full'
I've managed to work around the issue:
- Moving the mount point of "LABEL=home" from /mnt to /foo did not work.
- After a failure, all subsequent `guix system reconfigure` fail, even
the original, working configuration.
- After a fresh system boot, commenting out the filesystem configuration
of LABEL=home works. I rebooted after that. From then, I re-added
the entry for LABEL=home with the new mount point /home. It worked
after a reboot.
Something is fishiy...

What about /var/log/messages?

OK, this is an instance of an old bug that needs to be fixed:
